Local Villages

Marin Villages relies on donations to develop new Villages, strengthen the infrastructure of existing Local Villages and promote the Village Movement throughout Marin. We invite you to partner with us in creating a community in which our seniors can remain independent as they age, making neighbor-to-neighbor support possible for those who need it.

Welcome to Marin Villages!Marin Villages' mission is to help older adults remain independent in their homes and communities, with dignity and grace.

Did you know that Lisa Brinkmann, our Executive Director, recently spoke at the Commonwealth Club? Yes, Lisa shared the stage with Kate Hoepke of San Francisco Village and Linda Burroughs of Villages of San Mateo County in a panel discussion on the Village Movement. To hear the audio, click here.

The Faces of 90 video above highlights some of the amazing life stories of our community. This event helped raise funds to support the mission of Marin Villages of helping older adults remain active, connected and independent in the place they call home.

On January 23, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved a resolution proclaiming 2018 Year of the Older Adult in Marin kicking off a year-long celebration of the social, cultural and economic contributions of Marin's older adults as well as raising community awareness of the diverse needs of our aging population.
